Digital control meets relays: Weidmüller and PPC launch new solution for control rollout with EEBUS relay converter
At E-world, Weidmüller and PPC are demonstrating the EEBUS Relay Converter (ERC), a solution for control in accordance with Section 14a of the German Energy Industry Act (EnWG) and Section 9 of the German Renewable Energy Sources Act (EEG) at the interface between EEBUS digital and relay analogue. The jointly developed product translates digital EEBUS control signals into analogue relay switching commands. This means that even non-digital systems can be controlled by an SMGWplus in accordance with the requirements of Section 14a EnWG and Section 9 EEG.
Direct control from the gateway – The key to efficient control rollout in 2026
With the ramp-up in the installation of heat pumps and wall boxes, grid operators are facing a new challenge: each of these systems must be controllable in the future. The difficulty here? If a new physical device has to be installed for each controllable consumer, the mass rollout will be slowed down by the amount of material and time required. This is exactly where the SMGWplus control concept steps in.
SMGWplus proves scalability: Four wall boxes successfully controlled from the GWA
Power Plus Communications AG, together with Robotron and Thüringer Mess- und Zählerwesen Service GmbH (TMZ), has reached an important milestone for SMGWplus: control commands from TMZ's Robotron GWA system were successfully transmitted via SMGWplus to four separate TMZ wall boxes and executed.
